The Royal Contract

Chapter 130 - The Next Level

He moved closer to her, trapping her between him and the balcony. He did not want her to get away from him, not at this moment. There was one thing that was going through his mind, Dani belonged in his arms. He believed that

"I don't know what you mean." She could play dumb with him, but she knew what he meant by that.

She was aware of what his intentions were as she sensed him moved behind her. Her body recognized his presence and his closeness. It was looking forward to what he was about to do next.

He held her arms with both of his hands and started turning her until she was facing him. "This is what I mean." He uttered in his low charming voice as he stared into her eyes.

He knew that he had lost the fight as soon as she stood beside him. Looking at her with the sunlight shining upon her was like a homing beacon, telling him that he had to acquire the target.

"What are you doing?" She asked as he felt him moved closer to her. She was not afraid of him, but she was terrified of what would happen after. She wanted him but was she ready to accept their fate.

"Something that I should have done a long time ago." He finally admitted not only to her but also to himself, what he wanted all this time since he saw her again. Then, he did not wait for her to respond with words as he claimed what he thought was rightfully his.

She could not stop him even if she wanted to because her body welcomed it like it was what it had been waiting for all this time. She was tired of fighting against what her body desired.

When his lips touched hers, it felt like fireworks exploded around them. It was like the sun disappeared, and all she saw were the dancing lights around them. The moment was magical, and she did not want to break the spell.

He cradled her body in his arms as he deepened the kiss, letting their bodies mold into one. He savored her delicious taste as her tongue started playing with his. He allowed her a bit of control. For him, it was better if they were equal once in a while.

There were no words that could describe how they felt after giving in to their cravings. But was the kiss enough as they continued to satiate their longing for each other.

Alex knew that he would never be satisfied with just a kiss. He desired something more.

When his hands started moving down her body, down on her thighs, it suddenly woke Dani from her trance. "Wait!" She slightly pushed herself away from him, but it only gave her a bit of space because Alex was not yet ready to let her go.

"What's wrong?" Alex was slightly puzzled why she would want to stop. He was sure that she wanted his advances too. Her responses were evidence that she enjoyed it too.

"I..." Although she could still feel the thrill of his skin against hers, she had to stop him before it went beyond her control. She needed more time to think this through.

It was not that simple as just giving in to her desire. If something happened to them, it would not be just sex for her. She knew that she would not be able to stop her heart from getting involved too.

"I'm sorry if..." He suddenly felt like he did something wrong. He realized that he might have pushed her to do something she did not want or was ready to do.

"No, don't apologize. I like it when you kiss me." She looked into his eyes once more, wanting him to see how much she liked his kiss.

She did not want him to blame himself for something that was not his fault. He did not force himself on her. She responded wantonly with his kiss too.

"Then, why did you stop us?" He asked, smiling back at her, feeling a bit relieved that he did not do anything wrong, glad that she did like it too. But a bit confused with her mixed reactions.

"Because I want us to take things a bit slower this time." She had no idea how to explain how she felt with him, but she had to try.

"What do you mean?" He had to be sure of what she wanted. He could not keep guessing, and he also did not want to make the mistake of assuming things.

"I believe we started on the wrong foot. We already had sex even before we even had the chance to know our names. This time, I want it to be different." She knew she was mumbling nonsense to him, but she hoped he did get her point, lowering her face.

"Ok. I think I understand. Slower, no sex but a lot of kissing." He looked at her with a teasing smile. He lifted her chin until she was looking at his eyes.

He agreed with her logic. They did start wrong in this relationship. They made it worse by putting the contract in between them. Now, they were in the middle of a situation that was very complicated. So, he understood how she might be confused about their current condition.

"Stop joking around. I am serious." She started hitting him in the chest with her fist, but she knew it was hardly hurting him at all.

"Ok. I am ok with that. We can take things slow." He took her hands in his and kept them in his chest while watching her reaction. "Can I kiss you again now?" He asked, and when she nodded, he took that as a yes.

He lowered himself again into her face until he claimed her lips once more for a very passionate kiss. This time, he was not holding back. He wanted her to feel how much he had longed to have her in his arms again. And to had her lips on his.

He agreed to take this slow, but it did not mean that he was not taking this to the next level.
